SPANS CHILD QUEEN,

Royalties Gladstone SAITH fed
Prince Alexander's Pride.

MADRIB, January 10.-For several
hours on Saturday the city was ex.
cited over sensational reports that the
Infants Isabella, sister OF the late
King Alfonso, had been kidnapped or
killed. The Infanta had gone out in
a carriage to follow the Royal hunts.
men in the Prado. She occupied her
carriage alone, and was escorted by
three aids. In a remote part OF the
great park the carriage broke down,
throwing the Infanta into q ditch.
She was not hurt, although 1t was
feared she was. 1t was deemed
prudent for her to remain at the
scene Of the accident until assistance
could be procured, and for this a
lackey was dispatched. Much time
was lost in all this. In the meantime
the huntsmen had gone on a great
distance before they missed their
royal mistress, and when they dis
covered she was no longer with them
they became greatly frightened,
started general alarm and
began a noisy search. The pro-
longed absence Of the Infanta from
the castle caused ~uneasiness there, and
finally police and troops were sent out
in search Of her. They heard the re-
ports which had been scattered by the
frightened huntsmen, and the whole
country was subjected to a securing,
alarming the people and producing
the most sensational stories. The
lackey sent for assistance was slow,
and 1t wa 10 o'clock at night before
the royal carriage was found and the
truth heralded about town. What
added to the general CONSERVATION
during the search for the infanta was
the recollection OF the recent con-
spiracy, attributed to stock gambler rs,
for stealing the royal babe and lesv.
ing the throne without an heir.

we're witnessed yesterday in county

and horns sounded, and the people
quickly assembled, headed by priests.
Three evicted tenants we're reinstated,
and in two instances the bailiffs had
to abandon their attempts to evict
tenants, owing to the menaces of the
populace. The police were unable to
quell the disorders and withdrew

A short time ago the APPHAL made
SONS remarks with respect to the cot
ton seed oil monopoly, based upon
the following statements made In the
columns OF the New York Indicator,
a paper that does not make statements
without authority: That the Cotton
Seed Oil Trusts securities sell at so
and are going much higher, as they
are based upon valuable property
paying big ~prof2-that the Trusts in
slude 95 par cent. Of all the cotton
seed oil mills; that the mills pay a
profit Of 81 per cent, and will do
better "as the cost Of the seed has
been reduced from $l3 to So per ton !"
that with an increase OF 100000 tons
product aud an increased profit Of
"a a ton, the profits will equal about
Is per cent. on the "Trusts";
that there is virtually no COM
petition, or likely to be; that the
Trusts will get all the profit there is,
and i. is difficult to predict the divl-
dends they will yet earn, rs the In
dustry promises to be one Of the most
important as well as the most profit
able in the country. The Indicator, in
Its Thursday issue, expresses surprise
because the APPEAL speaks Of the Trust
as a monopoly, oppressive and tyran-
nous. 1t Gays: ave are surprised to
find the APPEAL, which has few rivals
for enterprise and soundness among
the great newspapers OF the country,
taking 30 antagonistic q stand against
an enterprise which is bound to add
very materially to the wealth CT the
South. The APPEAL is not in the
habit Of indulging in TRADES against
imaginary monopolies, so its criticism
OF the Cotton Oil Trusts Is entitled Il
more serious consideration than II Il
came from a pspsr which makes CAPT
tai out OF attacking enterprises anC
catering to ignorance and prejudice

Italy's Fighting Strength.

The London Daily News publishes an
article on thu strength of Italy, which
shows very plainly that the power
which attacks Italy in the future Euro
pean contest will not have a walkoyer.
The Russian army only is numerically
superior to the Italians. The available
strength for defensive purposes which
Italy can bring into action amounts to q
total of 2,3S7.332 men and she has a
permanent, though not permanently
active lighting force of $685. men.
The Generals, of the italian army are
Morozzo della Rocca, Cialdini, and the
Duke of Gaeta. The First Line, the
Mobile Militia, and the territorial Mi
litia are the army departments, and
in each of those the periods of training
are so arranged that nearly 1000, 600
men are kept in constant condition of
efficiency for immediate service. The
Italian %seacoast, further is traversed by
railways which would aid greatly in
the repulse of IN enemy. The navy,
too, is strong, and surpassed only by
the British navy
